Staying on here!

Right, that’s it, I’m staying on here! Evert time I dare to venture onto the triple negative board it scares me and I start worrying for my future. 

I’m someone that is better with info under my belt, so keep trying to find positive stories, but being triple negative there is soooo much negativity and bad news I can’t shut it out.

I can’t Google for answers either as its all bad press and out of date a lot of the time.

All of you are so lovely on here, uplifting and positive, and that’s where I need to be. So sorry, butvim sticking to you like glue! 

Xena big hugs x I should move on to going through treatment I suppose after an op but I keep hanging around with the people I have spoken to and feel comfortable with too so we will be here together and I send you love xx

There’s no option you moving out of this forum. We need you as much as you need us. Sending you triple positive thoughts. 

tooo right Hun I feel like that about all us ‘regulars’ my security blankets xx

Ah thank you - I like being a “regular”!
Mental sanity is half the battle, and I definitely get that boost here. :slight_smile:

That’s funny Jen I hadn’t read it any different to how you meant it xx

Can’t have Xena75 leaving here! Stay!!!xxx

Can’t have none of our gang leave x we always welcome new gang members too ?Xxx

 

Hi Xena

 

i know what you mean about moving boards. I truly believe knowledge is power but I haven’t yet really dared look at any of the chemo posts in ‘Going through treatment’. I think for once in my life it might be a case of ignorance is bliss. If I read about lots of side effects am I more likely to experience them as I’ll then be looking out for them?? ?

 

And even though I’m only on here sporadically I feel like I know bits of all of your stories. Even if I don’t get chance to post all the time, I like to try and keep up with what’s happening with everyone… xx

I do the skim reading too. I’ve joined a triple negative face book group but I’m very wary of really looking at it!

Hi Rosie,
I also scared myself by going on the hormone treatment board, but as it turns out, I 've been fine on tamoxifen as many of us are.
Understandably, those with problems will post, not those who are ok, so it is not representative of everyones experience.
See how you go, you may well be fine anyway & if side effects are an issue, then deal with it then.

Good afternoon to everyone

 

I am new to this website so please forgive me if things do not sound right.

I had a segmental mastectomy in the middle of July for a very small tumor. Am now on Tomixifen which really enhances the hot flushes I get with the menopause. Feel like I am on fire at times like I am sitting in front of a radiator. :smileyhappy:

 I hope everyone is doing ok it is very scary for anyone at any age and i am the first one in my family to get this awful disease and I know I will be ok.

 

I am hoping to start radiotherapy in September once my breast stops leaking as a blood clot is deciding to make its appearance on the oustside.

 

But for me I am off on first holiday for this year on Saturday to spain with my partner as we both need a good rest after the year we have both had so far as we both lost the last of our parents my partner his dad back at the end of December 16 and my mum back home in Austrlaia at the end of April so we are looking forward to having more good times and keep smiling as so far no crying.

 

thanks to all
